The relevant departments did not block "Groundhog Day" and released it after giving some insignificant review opinions.

Of course, there is nothing to worry about even if you want to. There is no negative suggestion in the plot of this movie at all. At the same time, the tone of the whole movie is mainly positive energy, and there is absolutely no other black spot.

In fact, several leaders of relevant departments are quite confident about Lu Yuan’s movies. "The Wanderer" is a main-theme anti-drug movie, and "This Man From Earth" is a science fiction movie, but when they saw some details wrong, they corrected them without saying a word, and they were very self-conscious without even needing your reminders. They were willing to sacrifice the box office losses for the harmony of the movie. How can the relevant departments not be confident about such a person?

Talented people are usually rebellious and like to play by the rules and not listen to others. But there are very few people like Lu Yuan who are talented and actively spread positive energy.

In short, the relevant departments gave the green light to everything that could be greenlit, and approved everything that could be passed, and the speed was much faster than other movies.

On May 10, the film was approved and Groundhog Day was slightly revised. Then the film was sent to major theaters to be released on a scheduled date...

Generally, movies will be promoted desperately at this time, and try their best to do all those fancy things to attract attention and increase the traffic of the movie.

But “remote” entertainment never involves anything fancy!

Even when Wu Tingting approached Lu Yuan to ask about publicity issues after the release date was confirmed, Lu Yuan looked at Wu Tingting very seriously.

"We at 'Remote' survive on quality and win the world with word of mouth! Promotion? I don't think we need to pay too much attention to it..."

"No matter how good the advertisement is, it is not as good as going to the server... and going to the cinema to watch it..."

"I think this is our fine traditional virtue of 'remote learning'. We must stick to this fine traditional virtue in the future and become a clear stream in the entertainment industry..."

"I'll just post a Weibo announcement."

“…”

Lu Yuan's words left Wu Tingting speechless.

After thinking about it carefully, she suddenly felt that what her boss Lu said made sense, and it seemed that with the current popularity of "Groundhog Day" and Boss Lu, there was really no need for any messy activities and publicity...

And Mr. Lu’s Weibo…

seem.

More effective than any propaganda method?

In short, "Groundhog Day" is the same as other "remote" movies. The investment in publicity for this movie is still basically zero.

The only way to promote it was for Lu Yuan to go on Weibo and post a message: "Groundhog Day is confirmed to be released on the 15th of this month. Pre-sale tickets have been listed on major cinema websites. I hope everyone will support it and don't make it too embarrassing for me. Thank you."

It's very simple.

It’s so simple that it makes people doubt life.

…

Half an hour later, Lu Yuan’s Weibo exploded.

In just half an hour, this Weibo post was reposted thousands of times and received countless comments.

A simple Weibo post made all the fans and netizens excited, even some very popular Weibo celebrities and people in the circle.

Lu Yuan is still the same Lu Yuan.

He either doesn’t post on Weibo, or if he does, it’s always an advertisement so simple it makes people vomit blood.

But, they don't care.

Instead, I feel that this Weibo post is a clarion call to charge.

Starting from May 2nd, when Chinese films were being suppressed by Hollywood films and were almost crying, they checked Lu Yuan's Weibo almost every day, and tried to find news about Lu Yuan through various channels every day.

The highly anticipated "Alien Age" had only a fraction of the Hollywood movie "Army of Darkness" at the box office after five days, and the box office was declining every day, basically becoming just a background movie.

Zhang Tong's film is facing extinction...

Zhang Dabao became the biggest joke of May.

The box office performance of Chinese films is really unsatisfactory, even extremely disappointing.

In the past, no matter how powerful Hollywood movies were, Chinese movies could still occupy the top three.

But now, Chinese films have no power to resist at all.

It was undoubtedly a dark feeling of humiliation.

This year's Chinese film industry seems to be declining faster than in previous years. Once-famous Chinese directors have been impacted by Hollywood and have begun to lose their direction and don't know how to shoot.

Follow Hollywood? If you follow Hollywood, you can't compete with their special effects. If you don't ...

The young and good-looking ones can't fight, and the ones who can fight are neither good-looking nor young. It's simply a gap between the young and the old, and it's even starting to come to an end.

It is no exaggeration to say a sad thing: the martial arts film is dead!

So how can China beat Hollywood in this situation? Even if it is not a blockbuster, even a bad movie like "Alien Killer" can make a good box office in China...

reason?

Who can you talk to about reason?

At this sad time, they thought of Lu Yuan.

Why did you think of Lu Yuan?

"Buried Alive" is a hit!

"Wanderer" is a hit!

"This Man From Earth" became a hit.

The success of one movie may be due to luck, the success of the second movie can also be attributed to luck, but what about the third movie?

Why don't you just watch three movies?

In a sense, Lu Yuan already represents a box office miracle.

But……

Groundhog Day stood them up.

They are used to being stood up. Lu Yuan is just like that. He even stood them up on Groundhog Day!

Then he stopped updating his Weibo and there was no news from him.

Even the headlines that had always been dominated by news about major movies breaking box office records have been replaced by news about major movies breaking box office records.

It was as if Lu Yuan had disappeared from the face of the earth. Apart from occasionally hearing from other people that "Groundhog Day" had been completed and sent for review, they had no news about when it would be released.

It seems to have an endless feeling.

For a while, there were calls, speculations, and doubts online...

Some people said that Lu Yuan was scared, some people said that Groundhog Day filmed something that shouldn’t be filmed, and the relevant departments didn’t approve it, and some people said that Lu Yuan was threatened by a mysterious force...

In short, there were all kinds of noises, until the dumbbell hit the car, the voices of doubt finally became much less.

Lu Yuan is fine, he is doing well.

but……

There is still no news about when it will be released...

No matter how the major media and fans asked and consulted, there was still no response.

They are anxious!

So anxious!

Then they had a bad feeling.

With this attitude, does it mean that "Groundhog Day" will really be delayed until June?

Just when this thought came to mind and some people were already disappointed, Lu Yuan’s Weibo was finally updated.

The release announcement has finally been made!

Then, everyone became excited!

…

May 15th.

It was a quiet day.

"Mr. Lu... I'm here again..."

“…”

"Mr. Lu, I've been here for almost a week. Can't you just give me a nod of agreement?"

“…”

"Mr. Lu, I don't know what I did wrong, but I can guarantee that I am suitable for this position."

“…”

Xu Cancan is still determined to get the position of personal assistant, and Lu Yuan has never seen anyone so persistent.

I have already made it very clear that I have rejected her, but she still runs to the company early every day with her resume, and stays in the company for the whole morning. Even after I get up and finish my meal every day, I can see Xu Cancan standing in front of me with a smile on her face and handing her resume to me.

This gave Lu Yuan a headache.

After a few visits, everyone else in the company except Lu Yuan became familiar with Xu Cancan, especially Fatty Wei, who would call her "Xu Cancan" the first time he saw her when he came to the company every day, and even had an excited look in his eyes.

He couldn't understand why Lu Yuan didn't accept Xu Cancan.

He thinks Xu Cancan is a good person, knows how to behave, is polite, and is pretty. What's more, her academic qualifications and other aspects are all brilliant. This doesn't make sense at all?

However, Lu Yuan still had a heartless look on his face and ignored Xu Cancan, not wanting to talk to her.

This look is really that of a diamond straight man.

After being rejected again, Xu Cancan shook her head and ran to Wang Jinxue's office to sit down.

"Rejected again?"

"Um."

"That's normal. I was in the same situation back then... The company was pretty run-down at that time..."

"Sister Jinxue...how did you get into the company?"

"That's how I got in..."

"What's your solution?"

"There is no way... By the way, with your conditions, if you want to enter the entertainment industry, you can stay in any company and hold any position. Why are you clinging to this place? You should not know how stingy Lu Yuan is, right?" Wang Jinxue looked at Xu Cancan.

"Sister Jinxue, to tell you the truth, I am a fan of Lu Yuan. When I was abroad, I liked listening to Lu Yuan's piano music. Not only piano music, but also Lu Yuan's songs, including his movies... He is really a unique person. He is better and more powerful than anyone I have ever met! But, I think he is also a pitiful person, especially in his songs "Love Until Death" and "Lilac", I can hear a hint of loneliness... He must have an unknown story, I want to know this story..." Xu Cancan was silent for a long time and then said these words in one breath.

"You like him?"

"Yeah, yes, I like him! Fans all like their idols, it's normal." Xu Cancan did not hide the voice deep in her heart at all.

"Oh." Wang Jinxue nodded silently and continued to work with her head down.

"Sister Jinxue, do you have any solution?"

"I can't help it... He's different from the others. His heart is harder than anyone else's."

"Sister Jinxue..."

"What?"

"You like him, don't you?"

"Um."

Xu Cancan looked at Wang Jinxue.

Wang Jinxue didn't look up and was still dealing with things, as if she had just casually responded.

"Sister Jinxue, shall we go to the movies together?"

"What movie?"

"Groundhog Day, it premieres today."

"Okay, we should go and take a look." Wang Jinxue was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Xu Cancan had a smile on her face and still looked very happy.

Wang Jinxue put down the documents in her hand, her expression still indifferent.

…

noon.

Everyone else in the company, including Wu Tingting, went to see "Groundhog Day", leaving Lu Yuan alone in the company.

There is no difference between watching a movie and not watching a movie for Lu Yuan.

In fact, he was not really looking forward to the movie. He felt that as long as the box office did not lose money and made a small profit, it would be fine.

Others...

Will his watching make the box office explode?

impossible.

It would be better to take this time to stay in the office with the air conditioner on and have a good nap.

But at this moment, Lu Yuan's cell phone rang.

The number seems unfamiliar.

"Hello?"

"Xiao Lu, congratulations on the movie's release..."

"Thank you. Who are you?"

"Oh, I'm Xu Guangrong."

"Oh, oh, hello, Master..."

"Xiao Lu, I called you today mainly to talk to you about Cancan's matter."

"What? Cancan?"

"Um……"

"She is...wait, she and you both have the last name Xu. Is she your relative's child?"

"She is my daughter..."

"What? Daughter?"

"yes."
